User Review - ConalO - LibraryThing

This one was a "fun read". As in the previous books in this series, Mike Resnick creates an interesting story with great characters. You can can expect more action as you have three widowmakers in this story along with some fun bad guys. Recommended for any SF action fans. 4 stars.Read full review
